With the new house one of the many decisions that we are still working through is lighting. I decided not to add a bunch of recessed lighting through the house primarily because I did that in my last renovation and found that we never really used the recessed lights (except in the kitchen). In the new kitchen I did have them put in 6 recessed lights; however, for the rest of the rooms, I am just working with the original lighting and adding floor and table lamps.
Our ceilings are a little over 8 ft, so not super tall; due to this, the use of chandeliers isn’t the best option in all of the rooms since we are a tall family. This brings us to flush mount fixtures as a great option, except finding affordable and good-looking flush mounts can be a challenge.
Since I can’t go hunting ever shop for great flush mount lights, being pregnant and all, I started online. The sites that I found with the best options and prices were Amazon, Allmodern, Pottery Barn, Westelm.
Here are the lights that I am currently “trying out” in our house now. I haven’t unpacked the fancy camera, so pretty pics will come later. If you are looking for some additional options, check out my lighting board on Pinterest here.
Don’t forget.
